Joey's Nostalgia Experience (Ep#50) — Sofya Gollan (Longtime "Play School" Presenter & Deaf Actress)

We're celebrating our 50th episode, with an exclusive one-on-one chat with a Prominent Australian Actress in the Deaf Community and Play School Presenter since the Early 90s... "Sofya Gollan" She talks about her early life, going through tough times at school, to becoming selected to study at NIDA. We also talk about her time as a presenter on Play School, being the first on the program to also use Auslan as a way to teach children to talk with their hands, and her thoughts on the representation of Auslan in the entertainment industry today. It's a wonderful chat about the importance of representation in all fields, and how the voices of those affected should be the "most heard"❤️ 🌐Check out Sofya's Work on her Website (https://sofyagollan.com.au/) 📌 Subscribe to the Joey Wiggle channel →    / @joeywiggle   🔔 Don’t forget to hit the bell so you never miss a new episode!
